Reckless Teens Slammed for Bus Surfing Stunt in GTA-Style Antics

A reckless stunt by four young men clinging to the back of a moving double-decker bus has sparked outrage, with onlookers comparing the dangerous antics to scenes from the video game Grand Theft Auto.

The thrill-seeking group latched onto the rear of the iconic red Number 31 Routemaster as it sped through north London, seemingly oblivious to the life-threatening risks involved.

The bus, which was traveling at speeds of up to 30mph, was completely unaware of its unexpected passengers.

As the vehicle navigated a roundabout on Belsize Road in Swiss Cottage, horrified motorists watched the quartet dangerously dangle from the back window.

Had they lost their grip, the consequences could have been catastrophic.

The reckless stunt, which took place on Wednesday (January 22), has since sparked anger among locals.

The Number 31 route runs between White City and Camden, serving busy areas of London, making the incident all the more concerning.

Residents were quick to condemn the act, with Adam Luxon branding the youths “idiotic thugs.”

Another witness, Vik Singh, simply called them “idiots.”

Social media users were equally unimpressed, with one commenter joking that an Uber driver was probably trailing behind, “hoping for a hospital pick-up.”

Christopher, another observer, likened the chaotic scene to a video game, declaring, “The UK is actually a GTA lobby.”

Some also pointed out how blame would likely shift if tragedy struck. Pauline quipped, “And if they fall, the bus driver will get the blame. Because mummy will say her choir boy does no wrong.”

This isn’t the first time reckless bus-surfing has made headlines.

Last May, a teenager wearing flip-flops was spotted clinging to the back of a moving bus in Lansbury Drive, Hayes, west London, as previously reported by vknews24.

The incident highlights a growing trend of dangerous stunts that could easily end in disaster.
